Chihuly at the Phipps

The Phipps Conservatory is host to an amazing installation by glass artist Dale Chihuly. It was amazing and inspirational! We went in both daylight and at night when carefully placed lighting brought a totally different feel to the exhibit. The interplay of Chihuly's innovative forms and colors in glass along with the varied vegetation in the conservatory was quite exciting.

Poodle Specialty

Mid June my artist friend, Paula Waterman and I shared a booth at the National poodle specialty in Salisbury, MD. (check out her blog: http://www.inkwellstudio.blogspot.com/ ). Our work compliments each other well and we got a great reception. "Roll Play" my bronze poodle with its feet in the air got a lot of attention.

At the show we saw poodles of all shapes, sizes and clips. Most amazing of all was Pi, a corded poodle who could fly!
